Rachel Brosnahan is best-known for her award-winning comedy role in The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel.

Charlie Kaufman is one of our most striking, unorthodox auteurs. From Adaptation to Synecdoche, New York to Anomalisa, the man makes exceptionally knotted, complicated, and metatextual journeys into the mind (well, usually his own). His latest project, I’m Thinking of Ending Things, sounds like all of these things — with the additional, exceptional wrinkle of being an all-out psychological horror film. I’ve been waiting with patient breath to hear when this … Continue reading ‘I’m Thinking of Ending Things’: Charlie Kaufman’s Netflix Movie Finally Has a Release Date!!

The world of Fargo, both originally set up in the Coen Brothers‘ 1996 film and expanded upon in the Noah Hawley FX anthology series of the same name, is rife with black humor, abrupt acts of casual violence, and an inherently existential point of view.
